[RPRWG] RPR Perf: Timing for Perf committee meetings

["Khaled Amer" <amer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everybody,

 

Several people indicated that just having a couple of evening sessions is not enough for us to make good progress with all the performance related work that the performance committee signed up to do. I agree. As we had discussed last time, it looks like we'll need something like 10 hours of meeting time for the group to be able to do the required work and make good progress.

 

Now, we can't work in parallel with any other adhoc groups at this time, since no other ones exist.

Also, people have indicated that they don't want to have the performance committee meetings in parallel with the main 802.17 WG meetings which they want to participate in as well. Then, we also know that the WG has a lot of work on its agenda and is unlikely to have an empty day for us to use. If an empty afternoon becomes available, we'll be sure to grab it!

 

So, we have some options to handle the situation:

• Sunday evening/night
• Monday morning (8:00 - 11:00)
• Evening sessions on Mon and Tues
• Friday morning/afternoon

We'll probably need some combination of these options since none of them alone will add up to the 10 hours needed.

 

I'd like to get a sense for the preference of interested participants.

Please send me an e-mail ordering the options with your preference priority (starting with your top preference).

Feel free to make any comments, but make sure to include your preference priority. PLEASE don't assume that I'll extract your preference out of your comments.

 

If you feel that you want to express an opinion and make it known to everybody (as part of discussing this), feel free to respond on the reflector. If not, you can just e-mail your preference priority directly to me.

 

If you don't send any indication, the assumption would be either:

• You're not interested in the perf committee activities and have no plans to participate
• You are interested, but have no preference and will participate regardless (and will not complain about the choices made!)

Thanks.
